Veterans Affairs to open community clinic in Craig

Veterans in Northwest Colorado will be able to get medical care in Craig this fall. U.S. Sen. Ken Salazar and U.S. Rep. John Salazar, Democrats and brothers, announced Wednesday the Department of Veterans Affairs will open a community-based outreach clinic in Craig. A VA press release said the nurse-run clinic will open no later than Sept. 30 and will provide part-time service five days a week "in leased or donated space."
